Treatment of Accounts Not grant or extend the time for payment of any Account, or compromise or settle any Account for less than the full amount thereof, or release any Person or property, in whole or in part, from payment thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon, other than as normal and customary in the ordinary course of a Grantor’s business or as required by law.
Establishment of Accounts (a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain an Eligible Account with the Securities Intermediary in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of (i) the Securityholders (the “Collection Account”), (ii) the Noteholders (the “Note Distribution Account”), (iii) the Securityholders (the “Reserve Fund”) and (iv) the Securityholders (the “Yield Supplement Account”), in each case, bearing a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the related Securityholders.

(i) Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.01(b), the Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Accounts and in all proceeds thereof (including all income thereon) and all such funds, investments, proceeds and income shall be part of the Owner Trust Estate. The Accounts shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders or the Securityholders, as the case may be.
(ii) Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, the Servicer agrees that the Reserve Fund, the Yield Supplement Account and the Collection Account will be established only with an Eligible Institution which agrees substantially as follows: (A) it will comply with Entitlement Orders related to such account issued by the Indenture Trustee without further consent by the Servicer or Issuer; (B) until termination of this Agreement, it will not enter into any other agreement related to such account pursuant to which it agrees to comply with Entitlement Orders of any Person other than the Indenture Trustee; (C) all Account Property delivered or credited to it in connection with such account and all proceeds thereof will be promptly credited to such account; (D) it will treat all Account Property as Financial Assets; and (E) all Account Property will be physically delivered (accompanied by any required endorsements) to, or credited to an account in the name of, the Eligible Institution maintaining the related Account in accordance with such Eligible Institution’s customary procedures such that such Eligible Institution establishes a Security Entitlement in favor of the Indenture Trustee with respect thereto over which the Indenture Trustee (or such other Eligible Institution) has Control.
(iii) The Servicer shall have the power, revocable by the Indenture Trustee or by the Owner Trustee with the consent of the Indenture Trustee, to instruct the Indenture Trustee to make withdrawals and payments from the Accounts for the purpose of permitting the Servicer or the Owner Trustee to carry out its respective duties hereunder or under the Trust Agreement or permitting the Indenture Trustee to carry out its duties under the Indenture.

Investment of Accounts (a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and consistent with any requirements of the Code, all or a portion of any Account other than the Certificate Insurance Payment Account held by the Trustee shall be invested and reinvested by the Trustee, as directed in writing by the Servicer, in one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or if the Servicer does not provide investment directions, the Trustee shall invest all Accounts in Permitted Investments described in paragraph (iv) of the definition of Permitted Investments. No such investment in any Account shall mature later than the Business Day immediately preceding the next Distribution Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the Trustee, then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than such Distribution Date).
(b) Subject to Section 6.01(b), if any amounts are needed for disbursement from any Account held by the Trustee and sufficient uninvested funds are not available to make such disbursement, the Trustee shall cause to be sold or otherwise converted to cash a sufficient amount of the investments in such Account. The Trustee shall not be, and the Servicer shall be, liable for any investment loss or other charge resulting therefrom unless the Trustee's failure to perform in accordance with this Section 6.06 is the cause of such loss or charge.
(c) Subject to Section 9.01 hereof, the Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in any Account held by the Trustee resulting from any investment loss on any Permitted Investment included therein (except to the extent that the Trustee is the obligor and has defaulted thereon or as provided in subsection (b) of this Section 6.06).
(d) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all net income and gain realized from investment of, and all earnings on, funds deposited in any Account (excluding the Certificate Insurance Payment Account) shall be for the benefit of the Servicer as servicing compensation (in addition to the Servicing Fee). The Servicer shall deposit in the related Account the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any Permitted Investment held therein which is in excess of the income and gain thereon immediately upon realization of such loss, without any right to reimbursement therefor from its own funds.
